April – Israel

This multicultural land has become increasingly popular among kiters. Israel’s coast is lined with golden sand beaches and tall palm trees, and wind conditions in the spring are excellent. The charming city of Tel Aviv has so much to offer besides kitesurfing: endless parties every night, creative culture and modern architecture give this place a vibe you won’t get anywhere else.

May – Oman

The Arabian Sea’s hidden gem is this newly discovered kiting spot in Oman. A rich culture and a fascinating history, this oasis will make your holiday a special one. With the water conditions ranging from shallow and flat for beginners to plenty of wave spots for the experts, you will find the right kite location whatever your needs are. Due to the fact that Oman still remains an “undiscovered” kitesurfing scene, you won’t have to worry about the crowds.

June – Mauritius

This tropical paradise is the perfect place to kick off the summer. Famous for its picturesque scenery and heaven-like beaches, Mauritius is guaranteed to steal your heart. When you get tired of kiting, you can also try scuba diving and explore the untouched coral reefs. If you’re after a relaxing kite vacation spent in nature, Mauritius is your spot.

July – Madagascar

If you’re looking for a unique kite experience, Madagascar might just be your answer. In the north of the island, Babaomby offers excellent water and wind conditions with both flat and wave zones. The water and air temperature are both around 28°C during this time. Visiting Madagascar also gives a great opportunity to outdoor enthusiasts to explore nearby rainforests and see some of the extraordinary wildlife.

August – Cabarete, Dominican Republic

This sleepy fishing village has quickly turned into a hub for adventure sports lovers due to its year-round consistent wind, and is now wildly popular with kitesurfers from all around the world. A laid-back atmosphere during the day and a vibrant nightlife makes it a perfect combination for those wanting to have fun and relax during their kitesurfing vacation.

September – Morocco

Elegant riads, busy medinas, golden sand dunes — the first things that come to mind when you think of Morocco. But this magical country is also a hot spot for kitesurfers. Essaouira — a historic walled fishing village — attracts kiters from all over the world due to its reliable wind conditions. Filled with local markets, small restaurants and magnificent architecture, this kite experience is like no other.

October – Hua Hin, Thailand

It should be no surprise that Thailand has some of the world’s most spectacular beaches. Just three hours south of Bangkok, you can find the seaside town of Hua Hin, which has evolved into a popular beach destination after the Thai royal family moved their summer residence there. Get your daily dose of adrenalin from a good old kite ride on the Gulf of Thailand.

November – Brazil, Jericoacoara

Hello Brazil! Jericoacoara, or “Jeri” as people call it, is famous for its endless beaches and its authentic Brazilian lifestyle. Due to its isolated location, it’s not as crowded and still maintains its small-town charm. Life in Jeri is all about balance: they work hard, but at night, they also play hard. When the sun goes down, people get out on the streets to drink, play music, meet friends and dance. Once you experience this laid-back lifestyle, you won’t ever want to leave.

December – Philippines, Boracay

The Philippines has no shortage of stunning tropical islands, and Boracay happens to be one of the top destinations in the country. The postcard-perfect location invites seasoned kitesurfers who want to improve their techniques in the beautiful turquoise waters.
